Diffraction coefficients related to cylindrically curved soft-hard surfaces

An asymptotic solution to the problem of the diffraction of high-frequency waves by the edge of a cylindrically curved surface whose convex and concave faces present soft and hard boundary conditions is obtained. The results permit us to define new diffraction coefficients related to this kind of mixed boundary conditions. When the radius of the curvature becomes infinitely large, the edgediffraction coefficient reduces to this known for the softhard half-plane.
